Iran’s national security chief says not a single particle of enriched uranium will go out

Major General Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC)and Chief of Army Staff Field Marshal Asim Munir in Tehran on Tuesday.
Iran’s top security official says all enriched nuclear material will remain inside the country, rejecting any possibility of transferring it abroad, as negotiations with the United States remain stalled over trust-building measures.

Major General Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), made the remarks during a meeting with Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff Asim Munir in Tehran on Tuesday.

“All enriched nuclear material will remain in Iran, and not a single particle will leave the country,” General Rezaei said. “This material is a great asset and national wealth for the Iranian people to use domestically.”

The Iranian people and officials are united in the view that no negotiations will take place until the United States builds trust by fulfilling Iran’s conditions, he said.

General Rezaei also emphasized the brotherly relations between Iranians and Pakistanis.

For his part, General Asim Munir said the border issue between Iran and Pakistan has been resolved and that the crossings was reopened as of Tuesday morning.

“We declare clearly that the problem on the Iran-Pakistan border has been resolved, and the border has been reopened since this morning,” Munir said.

The Pakistani army chief praised the Iranian armed forces’ defense and resilience during the 40-day war, emphasizing regional cooperation between the two countries without the presence of foreign forces.

Rezaei's comments come as, according to reports, Washington has demanded the transfer of Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium in its latest proposal.

Tehran has consistently rejected the idea, insisting on its right to peaceful nuclear technology under the Non-Proliferation Treaty.

The 40-day war, which began on February 28, with US-Israeli strikes on Iran, further complicated diplomatic efforts. Iran was in the middle of indirect talks with the US in June last year to resolve misunderstandings over its peaceful nuclear program when it came under unprovoked acts of aggression by the US and the Israeli regime.

A fragile ceasefire and a subsequent memorandum of understanding have failed to produce a lasting agreement.

Pakistan has emerged as a key mediator in the war, hosting indirect talks and maintaining close relations with Tehran and Washington alike.

Why Electricity Bills in Pakistan Are So High: The Full Story

Every summer in Pakistan, the same scene plays out in millions of homes. The postman arrives on a motorbike, drops a white and blue paper slip at the front gate, and walks away. That small slip is the monthly electricity bill. For most working families, opening that paper brings real fear. A household that used three hundred units of power finds a bill that equals half of the main earner's monthly pay. People ask the same angry questions at tea stalls, in bus stops, and around dinner tables. Why does power cost so much? Where is all this money going? Did we always pay this much for power? The short answer is simple. The high cost you pay today is not an accident. It is the result of choices made over thirty years. It comes from contracts signed in the 1990s, fuel bought from other countries, big loans taken from foreign banks, and millions of units of power lost to theft each year. To understand why your bill feels like a second rent, we have to look back at how Pakistan bui...
